love the dc5 teggys! How does it feel compared to the zs? Both great handling fwd cars, I do have a massive soft spot for these, nice car mate!

performance wise, it pisses on the 180, even below vtec it feels quicker and when you hit 6000rpm....:yikes:
handling wise its a very close match to the 120 (the best handling ZS IMO, ive had both so feel qualified to comment!). shows how good the MG engineers modded the old 45!

was gonna say exact same thing aswell Chris! they are awesome motors! i have had the priviledge of being in one before and they are rapid, look soo good to match aswell.

do you have any plans for this one? it really is super nice, good choice :)

thanks mate. the only mod i really want to do is lower it a tad. got my eye on some Spoon progressive springs :-D its already got a Kakimoto exhaust system (that was fitted in Japan) which sounds pretty mean.

I've also loved these cars too, the look different which is the Honda appeal I guess. Good choice and nice looking locations again!

Lovely motor (as you know)
I think the Pisses phrase is a bit OTT.Faster no doubt

so why did you get rid of the ZS?. U had it repaired after an accident?

i did have it repaired mate, but it never felt the same and the wife hated going in it again (she was driving at the time of the crash). still got £6500 p/x for it though which cant be bad!
